4. Reykjavik

It might be sub zero temperatures in this Icelandic country but that doesn’t mean you can’t doll up in your furry coats, put on your snow boots and join a warm bonfire party that dote the streets at almost every pub to enjoy yourself a glass of mulled wine, isn’t it? If you love unadulterated snow and some me time, this is it!

5. Amsterdam

The fireworks here take place at the National Maritime Museum and the cargo ship The Amsterdam, which are lit up to look beautiful and just gazing at it for hours won’t be enough! Get yourself a booking at a local bar before they’re full and enjoy the night like never before.

The Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong is one of the best fireworks show in the world and millions of people flock from all over to see this on New Year’s Eve.

7. Berlin

This otherwise quite German town is bustling and sizzling with energy on New Year’s Eve with concerts and the country’s best events taking place at the square. Celebrate with the almost one million co-party goers between Brandenburg Gate and Victory Column, with the DJ playing your favourite tunes till your feet hurt and you can’t stand!

8. New Orleans

31st December is your best bet to visit this city if you don’t end up going for their Mardi Gras festival which is definitely one of a kind. So for New Years, fireworks are let off a steam boat and the famous Jackson Square becomes a really ‘lit’ party spot!
